🔬 Cancer drug target shows promise for nerve pain

A protein known for cancer is being studied for its link to chronic nerve pain development. Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Centre found that BRAF, a cancer protein, increases pain signals after nerve injury. In preclinical models, blocking BRAF signaling reduced sensitivity to pain following nerve injury. This suggests existing cancer drugs could potentially be investigated for neuropathic pain treatments. Further clinical studies in humans are needed to confirm the safety and effectiveness of this approach. 🔬
